Abstract:

Academic libraries regularly conduct assessment of library services through the use of rubrics or assessment tools such as LibQUAL (www.libqual.org/home). Technical services activities are frequently assessed; however, the assessment is typically limited to the evaluation of specific processes. This study was designed to explore assessment activities in Pennsylvania’s academic libraries. The author designed a survey to investigate whether technical services activities are assessed, how they are assessed, who is responsible for assessment, how the results of assessment activities are shared wit

Abstract:

The relevance of the research. ChatGPT has changed how people view artificial intelligence. This shift has triggered a sharp rise in research on AI’s role in libraries. Libraries now face intense “innovation pressure” from users, media, and tech leaders, yet they still lack a clear, librarian-friendly roadmap for integrating AI into day-to-day work. Most technical, cybersecurity, legal, and financial challenges should be addressed by experts outside library science, so librarians must identify the specific tasks that require their direct attention.

Abstract:

Technical services units have routinely kept detailed monthly and annual statistics to assess productivity and efficiency, especially regarding functions that are easily measured. However, with the evolution of library user behavior, libraries’ strategic directions, and technical services’ practices, these numbers have become less and less useful in revealing the value of this work. In this paper, the authors introduce a methodology and draft model with which technical services managers can better assess not only their unit’s productivity and efficiency, but the extent to which its activities
